Material examined

One specimen was collected from Yunnan Province, one specimen from Guizhou Province .

Remarks

This species was reported as a new record for China from Shaanxi Province ( Wang et al. 2007). Colourless. Eyes present. Smooth cuticle. The stylet supports are particularly short and stout. Pharynx with apophyses and two macroplacoids, the first macroplacoid with a middle constriction. Microplacoid absent. Accessory points present on the principal branches of the claws. Cuticular bars present on the first three pairs of legs. Smooth lunules present on all legs. My specimen fits the description of this species ( Ramazzotti and Maucci 1983; Pilato and Binda 1988; Tumanov 2003). This is the first report of this species from the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau.
